英语翻译
Complexity,interdependence,and simultaneity are fundamental elements of the sustainable model,which is clearly biological rather than mechanical in nature.For such systems,size and form must follow function.In biological systems,individual elements must conform to their ecological niche.Big,specialized farms will be sustainable only if their "niche" is equally large and homogeneous.It will take "mind work," not physical or economic muscle,for farmers of the future to find a niche where they carry out their function by means that are ecologically sound,economically viable,and socially responsible.
Why should we stop promoting the industrial paradigm of farming?-- because there is growing evidence it is obsolete,old fashion,out of date,and may well be doing more harm than good.Why should we stop promoting the industrialization of agriculture?-- because a new post-industrial model is emerging which deserves at least a share of our time and attention.
Many of my colleagues will respond that we do not promote industrialization or any other particular model of farming.But,we do.The agricultural establishment,including agricultural colleges,may not intentionally promote industrialization,but it is none the less promoted by their attitudes and actions.
Barker points out that successful old paradigms,such as industrialization,often collect a host of avid,but unwitting,advocates.The advocates tend to apply their industrial paradigm -- unconsciously,spontaneously -- to any problem that arises.They separate,sequence,analyze and organize as a matter of standard operating procedure.Integration,simultaneity,synthesis and spontaneity are missing from their mental problem-solving tool box.Thus,they are automatically led to specialization,never to synergism,as their logical solution,regardless of the nature of the problem.In their minds,there are no logical alternatives.
But in fact,there are logical alternatives to industrialization.Success in the future will require new ways of thinking.I return to Peter Drucker's Post Capitalistic Society and quote:"In the knowledge society into which we are moving,individuals are central.Knowledge is not impersonal,like money.Knowledge does not reside in a book,a databank,a software program; they contain only information.Knowledge is always embodied in a person,carried by a person; created,augmented,or improved by a person; applied by a person; taught by a person,and passed on by a person.The shift to the knowledge society therefore puts the person

复杂性,互相依存性和同时发生性质是可持久模型的三个基本要素。从性质上讲,是生物学而不是机械的。对于这个系统,尺寸大小和外形必须和功能相符合。在生物学系统方面,个别要素必须遵循它们的生态学功能。对于大型的专业农场来说,只有当它们的职能一样大并且相似时才能保持稳定发展。这是思想方面的工作,而不是物质和经济方面的。对于农民来说,维持生态平衡,经济持续发展,社会责任是他们真正的职责。
为什么我们要停止宣传农业范例?--因为它是陈旧的,老式的,过时的,而且坏处大于好处。为什么我们必须停止宣传农业工业化?--因为一个新的超越于工业的模型正在出现,它需要我们的关注。
我的很多同事都反应出我们没有宣传工业化或其他特定形式的农业,但实际上我们做了。农业公司,包括农业大学,可能不是有意去宣传,但他们的态度和行动却无意地表现出来了。
木匠指出那些旧的范例,例如工业化,常常引来了一些渴望的,但不知情的鼓吹者。这些鼓吹者无意识地,本能地试着应用工业化范例去解决碰到的问题。他们把分离,排序,分析,组织作为标准操作程序。综合性,同时性,自发性正从他们的思想中消失,因此导致了他们解决问题方式的专业性,却忽略了合作性。不管问题怎样,在他们看来,并不存在逻辑性选择。
但实际上,工业化的逻辑性替代方法是存在的,想要取得未来的成功就必须采用新的思维方式。这使我想起Peter Drucker的《超越资本主义〉:在知识社会中,个人是中心。知识并非个人的,它不像金钱那样。知识不在书本中,数据库中,软件中,它们只包含了信息。真正的知识总体现在一个人身上,由一个人携带,创造,扩展,改进,应用,教学,并由这个人传授给另一个人。向知识社会过渡恰恰造就了一个人。
